Lady Susan


Author: Jane Austen
Genre: Romance
My rating on a 1-10 scale: 7
Type: Fiction
Number of pages: 64
Time period: 1800's
Main characters: Lady Susan, Frederica, Reginald, Alicia Johnson
Exciting events: Frederica runs away, schemes
My overall opinion: This is a really weird Jane Austen. It's made up of letters from a scheming mother to her equally schemey (?) friend. It's pretty terrible, but funny in places too.

I've heard about Lady Susan, but I didn't know too much about it. Thanks for the review! :-)

I've never heard of this Jane Austen book before. Sounds interesting, definately something my sister would like--she loves reading letters (even it they're fictional).
